Twitter : Most innovative web company

Twitter tops the list of top ten innovative web companies this year as reported by Fast Company magazine. Other big giants in this list are Google just behind Twitter and Microsoft at 9th position. Here is the list of the top innovators :
  1. Twitter
  2. Google
  3. Zynga
  4. Netflix
  5. Foursquare
  6. Tumblr
  7. Crimson Hexagon
  8. Stocktwits
  9. Conaco Productions
Twitter topped the list with a record increase in users from 20 million in 2009 to 200 million today. Twitter introduced a sleek re-designed interface and it played an integral role in recent revolutions in the Middle East.

Google, the most popular web giant who cant even alter a pixel of its logo without the whole world knowing it, stands second right after twitter. Google launched Google Instant this year with 98 percent adoption rate and around 2 million searches per second.

With the strategic partnership with Kayak, Yahoo, Twitter, and Facebook, Bing(second most-popular search engine) from Microsoft is the only one remarkable challenge for Google search keeping Google Mountain View-based foe from becoming a monopoly and reserving 9th position for Microsoft in the list.

Though some very popular companies like Yahoo and Facebook could not make to this list even after some innovative launches and some relatively new companies have been able to mark themselves in the list.
